QUESTION 4

What is the difference between a criminal prosecution and a tort lawsuit?

In a tort lawsuit the victim must start the legal action whereas in a criminal case a prosecutor employed by the government will start the legal action.

In a civil action the victim must prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt whereas proof based on the balance of probabilities is the standard in a criminal prosecution.

Trials in tort lawsuits are conducted in private whereas criminal prosecutions are open to the public.

The burden of proof is much easier to prove in a criminal case than it is in a civil action based on tort.
